- FIG. 6 illustrates steps in a method according to one embodiment
- FIG. 7 illustrates investor value and stock price according to one embodiment
- FIG. 8 illustrates relationships between entities in one embodiment
- FIG. 9 illustrates steps in a method according to one embodiment.
- the invention allows a subsidiary, which is typically an offshore subsidiary, to raise financing in the convertible market and send or repatriate some or all of the proceeds from that financing to the parent as a dividend.
- a subsidiary which is typically an offshore subsidiary
- the embodiments are also applicable outside the boundaries of the Homeland Investment Act of 2004.
- system 100 includes a parent company 102 , an off-shore subsidiary 104 , investors 106 and third party 108 .
- Network 110 (LAN, WAN, extra-net, the Internet, PSTN, etc.) connects parent company 102 , off-shore subsidiary 104 , investors 106 and third party 108 .
- parent company 102 off-shore subsidiary 104 , investors 106 and third party 108 have computers with central processors, memory (RAM, ROM, etc.), fixed and removable code storage devices (hard drive, floppy drive, CD, DVD, memory stick, etc.), input/output devices (keyboards, display monitors, pointing devices, printers, etc.), and communication devices (Ethernet cards, WiFi cards, modems, etc.).
- Network 110 provides a path for data communication, and allows exchange of information signals between the illustrated entities.
- Software code to accomplish the methods described below may be stored on a computer-readable medium and may also be transmitted as an information signal, such as for download.
- parent 102 issues a forward
- offshore subsidiary 104 issues a debt instrument/preferred security.
- the forward is an equity forward on common stock of the parent that is structured so the issuer retains or withholds approximately the first 20% of common stock price increase. In this manner, investors do not participate in that first percentage of stock price upside.
- the forward and the preferred security have the same maturity (e.g., approximately three years), and the debt instrument has a longer maturity (e.g., approximately five years).
- the debt instrument is a bond in one embodiment.
- parent 102 may provide a guarantee on payments due under the debt instrument.
- the debt instrument/preferred is pledged as collateral for settlement of the forward, and the two instruments (the forward and the debt instrument/preferred) are a financial instrument that is issued to the mandatory convertible market where it is purchased by investors 106 .
- the proceeds from the purchase go first to offshore subsidiary 104 and then at step 308 to parent 102 as a repatriated dividend.
- a three year or other maturity clock for the forward and preferred starts at step 310 .
- system 100 determines whether the instrument is a bond, or a preferred. If it is a bond, then at step 314 , issuer 102 receives the debt instrument from investors 106 and re-markets the debt by selling it to new investors. In one embodiment, the money received from re-marketing the debt instrument is applied to purchase the shares under the forward. If for some reason the re-marketing fails, the issuer takes the debt and stock-settles the forward.
- step 316 investor 106 settles the forward and preferred.
- settlement may be physical, cash or net share.
- a three year equity forward together with a straight preferred that has a three year maturity, or a bond (remarketed in year 3) have the same economic features as a mandatory convertible.
- a mandatory convertible preferred at the three year maturity, the investor surrenders the mandatory convertible preferred and receives a specified number of shares of common stock according to the common stock price at the three year maturity. If the stock price is trading at less than the forward price of $10, the investor receives one share. If the stock price is trading at $12 or more, the investor receives 0.833 shares. If the stock price is trading between $10 and $12, the investors receive a fractional number of shares equal to $10 of value.
- the return to the investor is illustrated in FIG. 4 , and is the same for a mandatory convertible preferred and the described financial instrument that includes the equity forward with a debt instrument/preferred.
- the structure illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 3 and described above can be broadly marketed as an SEC registered offering, and it receives high equity credit from rating agencies because settlement is generally in shares and not in cash.
- the earnings per share treatment at the parent is treasury stock accounting.
- the longer-term debt (a five year bond in the example embodiment) that is included with the three year preferred allows a tax deduction for the structure, which is typically not available with a mandatory convertible preferred or a combined equity forward and preferred.
- the additional feature of combining a longer-term maturity five year bond with the three year equity forward helps to avoid the U.S. Internal Revenue Service integration rules and to make the structure tax deductible.
- This structure allows high equity credit and repatriation of the cash dividend simultaneously. It also protects the parent credit rating, and the treasury stock earnings per share treatment (where applicable) means fractional shares are added to share count as stock price rises. The entire proceeds of the offering are available to repatriate dividend (there is no leakage), and it expands the investor base to the mandatory convertible market to optimize pricing.
- step 602 another embodiment begins at step 602 with offshore subsidiary 104 issuing a convertible bond to the convertible bond market.
- the convertible bond is purchased by investors 106 .
- offshore subsidiary 104 purchases a call option from third party 108 on common stock of parent 102 .
- the call option purchase uses a percentage of the proceeds from the convertible bond issue.
- the call option and the convertible bond have similar or compatible terms (maturity, etc.).
- third party 108 may hedge the call that was sold to offshore subsidiary 104 by purchasing a call option from parent 102 (or another party) with the same or similar terms as the call purchased by offshore subsidiary 104 at step 604 .
- Purchase of the call option from third party 108 instead of directly from parent 102 helps to avoid concerns about disposition of parent stock at the time of convertible debt settlement.
- parent 102 may provide a guarantee of the convertible bond to its face value
- offshore subsidiary 104 provides the balance of the funds from the issue price of the convertible bond to parent 102 as a repatriated dividend.
- a multi-year maturity clock corresponding to the convertible and call option maturity starts, and upon expiration, at steps 614 and 616 , subsidiary 104 , third party 108 and investor 106 settle the call and convertible bond. In one embodiment, this is a net share settlement.
- Net share settlement can be described with the following example: For a one year call option, with $10 stock price and $10 strike price, within 1 year the holder can deliver the call option along with $10, and receive one share of common stock. If the price of common stock is $15.00 when the call option is exercised, the investor can sell the share for $15, and has $5 increase in value which is the in-the-money value of the call option.
- Net share settlement means that the company gives the investor the in-the-money amount of value in shares ($5/$15 or 0.33 shares in this example) instead of having the investor deliver the $10 in cash and get back a share worth $15.00.
- Net share settlement can be advantageous where the issuer is dilution sensitive.
- the earnings per share treatment at the parent is based on the convertible coupon as interest and treasury stock impact of the sold call option.
- the interest expense is based on the convertible coupon, and treasury stock treatment of the sold call option is fractional shares added as stock price rise, both providing better earnings per share at the parent.
- the call option premium received at parent 102 is neither taxable nor included as profit and loss income.
- FIGS. 5 and 6 can be structured as an SEC registered or Rule 144A offering.
- Offshore subsidiary 104 generally satisfies the “Plantation Patterns” test described above, and any tax deductions may depend on the laws of the offshore jurisdiction. Under the IRS rules, the $10 call option premium could be characterized as a Section 956 payment. Disclosure of stand-alone offshore subsidiary financials should be prevented by adding a newly formed offshore capital raising subsidiary.
- FIGS. 5 and 6 offer down-side protection to investors 106 , as illustrated in FIG. 7 .
- an embodiment begins at step 902 with parent 102 and subsidiary 104 selling to the same investors a straight bond issued by subsidiary 104 , and a call option, issued by parent 102 .
- parent 102 may provide a guarantee on payments due under the bond.
- the two instruments are issued to the convertible market and purchased by investors 106 .
- Parent 102 receives value from the purchase corresponding to the value of the call option, while offshore subsidiary 104 receives value from the purchase corresponding to the value of the bond.
- offshore subsidiary 104 provides, as a repatriated dividend to parent 102 , the value received from the purchase corresponding to the value of the bond.
- a multi-year maturity clock corresponding to maturity of the bond and call option starts, and upon expiration, at step 912 , parent 102 , subsidiary 104 and investor 106 settle the call and bond. In various embodiments, this is a physical settlement, cash settlement or net share settlement.
- the straight debt and call option in these embodiments are economically equivalent to a convertible bond.
- the offering can be executed as an SEC registered or Rule 144A offering.
- Earnings per share at the parent of the call option is treasury stock accounting and it is possible that accounting interest expenses at the parent may be based on straight debt cost if interest accretion is created at the offshore subsidiary. Tax deductions on the debt will generally depend on the laws of the offshore jurisdiction.
- FIGS. 8 and 9 provides a lower cash cost of capital as compared to straight debt because of the call option sale.
- sale of the call option directly by parent 102 avoids some tax concerns and issues.
- Offshore subsidiary may need to satisfy the “Plantation Patterns” test described above.
- Accounting interest accretion at the offshore subsidiary may cause earnings per share at parent 102 to include interest expense equal to straight debt cost. Disclosure of stand-alone offshore subsidiary financials may be avoided by adding a newly formed offshore capital raising subsidiary.
- FIGS. 8 and 9 also offers down-side protection to investors 106 , as illustrated in FIG. 7 .
